reasonable nutrition is closely related to people's growth and development, labor ability, life extension and disease prevention, treatment and rehabilitation.

1. Reasonable nutrition can promote physical development

Food is the most important material basis for the growth and development of college students. The growth and development of organisms, life activities, mental work and physical work all depend on the substance metabolism in the body. In the process of substance metabolism, the body must constantly ingest a certain amount of food from the outside in order to promote growth and development, enhance physical fitness, increase immune function, prevent diseases, improve work efficiency and exercise ability.

Reasonable nutrition means that the body can ingest all the nutrients necessary to keep healthy, and the proportion of various nutrients meets the needs of the human body. Lack of nutrients, or unbalanced intake of various nutrients, unreasonable dietary structure, etc., will not only cause growth retardation, but also lead to various acute and chronic malnutrition and various nutritional deficiencies. Therefore, reasonable nutrition and dietary balance can better promote the healthy growth of college students.

Reasonable nutrition can improve the activity ability of human brain and enhance people's computing ability, memory ability, judgment ability, action ability and vision. The brain is the most active organ in the human body. Although its weight is only about 2% of the human body, the energy consumed by the brain accounts for 2% of the total energy consumed by the whole body. Therefore, reasonable nutrition plays an important role in brain health care.

The main reason is that many people don't know or have no time to know much about nutrition, so it is necessary to play a subtle role through the dietitian's catering of nutritious meals. At the same time, we should also consider the needs of taste and price. Through the combination of breakfast, we can reduce the transaction time, facilitate carrying and improve the breakfast rate.

2. Enhance the flavor of the canteen food

The canteen food has diversified tastes, which can meet the tastes of students in different regions. Students are happy to eat in the canteen, and their nutritional status can also be improved.

Cereals are the main body of traditional diet in China and the main source of human energy. Cereals, including rice, flour and miscellaneous grains, mainly provide carbohydrates, protein, dietary fiber and B vitamins. Sticking to the grain-based diet is to maintain the good tradition of Chinese diet and avoid the disadvantages of high-energy, high-fat and low-carbohydrate diet. In addition, we should pay attention to the matching of thickness and often eat some thickness and miscellaneous grains. Don't grind rice and wheat too finely, or most of the vitamins, minerals and other nutrients and dietary fiber contained in the surface layer of grain will be lost to bran.

4. Eat more fruits, potatoes and dark vegetables. It is suggested that an apple a day

Fish, poultry, eggs and lean meat are good sources of high-quality protein and fat-soluble vitamins and minerals. The amino acid composition of animal protein is more suitable for human needs, and the content of lysine is higher, which is beneficial to supplement the midfoot of lysine in plant protein. Chicken, fish, rabbits, beef and other animal foods have higher protein content and lower fat, and the energy produced is much lower than that of pork. We should strongly advocate eating these foods and appropriately reduce the proportion of pork consumption.

5. Eat snacks properly, eat less convenient food and barbecue, and limit midnight snack.

If you feel hungry due to lack of energy at night, you should supplement digestible foods such as porridge and bread, or you can add a small amount of fruit and milk and eat less instant noodles.
